A Story of Nine. Blavatsky.
From the Kansas City Journal.


Just a few evenings ago, at a small dinner
was once a student at Cornell, in the same class
with Gov. Foraker of Ohio, told me of a strange
experience he once had in New York with Nine
Blavatsky, the notorious Theosophist.
He wished to test her supposed supernatural
powers and see for himself il she could do any
of the wonderful things alleged of which Julian
Hawthorne is so fond of writing. He called and
stated the object of his errand. The madame
was seated in an arm-c chair at one end of her
room. She was gracious, polite, volatile and
agreeable. There was centre-table in the room
Write letter personally to yourself ;, she
said, ''about something known only to yourself,
and seal it,"
He did so. +"
Drop it on the floor near the table"
This was done. She put her hand near the
carpet. pointed with one finger, and the letter
came to her. She took it up and made a mo-
ton as If she would open it.
II beg your pardon, said the disturbed pro-
fessor. That is personal and private letter ~
"Oh, Will not open it" was the reply IF
YOU look upon the table you will find a copy of
it,"
She handed the sealed letter to Prof Clarke.
He went to the table and saw an exact COPY of
his letter in his own handwriting upon another
sheet of paper.

when you get home you will find it under the
table in your study"

said To me, land got out of the house as soon
as could, and r1rsned home, found the COPY

The young man who writes paragraphs
for the Washington Post may be quite
brilliant, but he is not exactly the kind of a
person to be trusted in an editorial room
without somebody to keep an eve upon him.
A few days ago the MORNING NEWS stated
that the New York Star had not yet col
lected quite $1,000 for the Grant monument
fund, and this young man came at once to
the front with the statement that the amount
collected was over $1,000, including $500
which Henry Clews has guaranteed The
young man also ventured the suggestion
that 'it is best to be accurate in such i'm
portant matters" If this Smart Aleck will
look at the statement of the condition of the
fund published in the Star on Tuesday he
will find that the amount collected up to
that date was 81, 1913 a. Yes, it is best to
be accurate.

A Perplexing Family.

From the Madison (Wis.) Journal
Mr.. L. Osborne, of this city, married his
grandfather's second wife, and they have a son.
Given this simple statement and a number of
peculiar family relationships may be deduced.
For example, Mr.. Osborne is grandchild of his
wife. His son being also a son of his (Osborne's)
grandmother, is uncle to his own father. Os-
borne becomes brother to his uncles and
aunts, and also stepfather to them. The boy,
being the child of Osborne as a grandson il
thereby a great-grandson of his own mother,
while his father may rejoice in the title of great.
grandfather to his own child. Thus the boy be.
comes grand-uncle TO himself and his parents
great grandchild Osborne is the boy S father and
great grandfather at the same time, and being
the husband of his own grandmother, enjoys the
distinction of being his own grandfather as well
Osborne's mother married man named Blake
and his sister married a brother-in- law of her
mother Henry Blake. Osborne's sister becomes
a sister to her own mother. Mrs. Blake, being
Osborne's mother, is grandmother to Osborne's
son. The latter, however, being son of the
wife of Mrs. Blake's father-in-law, is therefore
brother TO his grandmother and grandunce to
his grandmother's sister, the daughter who mar
ried Mrs. Bake's brother-in-law. He also is her
nephew, as the son of her brother. Osborne is
the younger Mrs. Blake's grandfather as well as
her brother. Thus her nephew, Osborne's son,
becomes uncle to his aunt, being a son of her
grandmother. This series of relationships may
be likewise traced almost indefinitely. The fam
lily are happy and conteuted, and live as pleas
antly as though the peculiar family ties were
not present.

Some Bashful Bridegrooms
From, The Rochester Herald.


A Justice of the Peace in Saratoga county re-
Gently joined pair who were so embarrassed
that they hardly knew what they were doing.
The man wore white straw hat which he
whirled on his finger before the ceremony be-
gan. When told to stand up he jumped before
the Justice with the greatest alacrity. For a
few moments he did not know what to do with
the hat, but finally found his way out of the
difficulty by putting it between his knees. This
was too much for the bride. With the handle
of her parasol she caught the hat, pulled it from
its position and then, abashed at her audacity,
dropped hat and parasol to the floor.
The same Justice tells story of another
couple who came to be married. The man was
awfully puzzled and without realizing the act,
pulled a cigar from his pocket and began
twirling 1t around. When that portion of the
ceremony was reached where bride and gre ON
join hands, he happened to have the cigar in
his right hand. What to do with the cig,r he
apparently did not know. The Justice paused
minute and then again directed the pair to
join hands. BY this time the poor fellows en-
barrassment was painful. He gave one agonized
look at the Justice of the Peace and stuck the
cigar in his mouth Before the ceremony could
be concluded the Justice had to take the cigar
from the mans lips

A Long Session Probable.

The people are beginning to wonder when
the Legislature will adjourn. There are no
indications of an intention to adjourn at an
early day. Two resolutions have been in
troduced on the subject, but they haye
received no attention. There is not much
probability that the final adjournment will
occur this month, and it may not occur
until the latter part of next month. The
members intend doubtless to attend the
Piedmont Fair, and they will hardly con-
sent to an adjournment while it is in
progress.
! Infact the Legislature is in no condition
! TO adjourn. There are nearly a thousand
bills waiting consideration, and some of
them are quite important. The amount of
,, business that has been transacted is very
small. A great deal of time was wasted on
the foolish Brady bill, and Representatives
FELTON, and Simmons amused the House for
few days with their abuse Of each other.
There has been very little legisla-
ton of a general character that is ca@cu-
lated to meet the needs of the State.
The Finance Committee has attended to
the financial affairs of the State, but moth
ing is settled with respect to the convict
question, the State road matter and other
important things in which the whole State
is interested
1t is the customary thing, Of course, to
find fault with Legislatures, but as a rule
the fault-finding is not unreasonable. Leg
islators do too much talking and too little
work. A great many Of them are absent
from their post of duty too often, and when
they are present they do no not give their
whole attention to their duties.
The people have to foot the bills and
they have right to complain if they find
that they are paying too much for what
they get. When the new constitution was
adopted it was hoped that one session Of the
Legislature every two years would be all
that would be necessary. The present Leg
islature held its regular session last year,
and has been in session two months this
year How much it will cost before it con-
cludes to adjourn it isimpossible to estimate
with any degree of certainty. 1t is pretty
safe to say, however, that the value of its
work from present indications will be small
in comparison with its cost 1t seems disposed
to shirk the responsibility of settling the
really great matters which come before it.
Perhaps it thinks its successors will be bet
ter qualified to settle them.

Sam Small has replied to the Missouri
Republicans structures on his confession of
having stuffed ballot boxes in violently
abusive speech from the pulpit, in which
he manages to be very inconsistent. He
says he has been converted from ballot
box stuffing Democrat to decent one, but
at the same time vigorously defends ballot
box stuffing at the period his crime was
committed, reciting the circumstances and
closing with the declaration that "self-pro-
lection overrides every law on the statute
books The Rev. Sam is evidently not
deeply penitent-indeed he seems to be
proud of his exploit.
